Using radiant cooled floors to condition large spaces and maintain comfort conditions.

Author(s) : SIMMONDS P., HOLST S., REUSS S., et al.

Summary

The paper describes the development of a hybrid conditioning system that creates a comfortable indoor environment in a building. The operation of a variable-volume displacement conditioning system and a radiant cooled floor have been optimized to reduce the building load. Control strategies were developed that optimize energy consumption and contain moisture levels within specified limits. The development of conditioning-only occupied zones is shown and how the overall energy consumption is reduced. Its application in a large airport is described.
